There's a lot of negativity towards Sony since E3. Seems like everything is getting worse for Sony. =\

They've brought it on for themselves, Holding back production of VCS Isn't exactly a plus on their Side, Blocking anything fun on the PSP doesn't help, and constantly Pissing on Europe. Sony are taking enough risks with the PS3 as it is, they need all the support they can get, not dick around and delay it for one region for no reason, pissing off gamers. Great plan Sony, promise something, then stab them in the back. TBH It's getting to the point where I WANT the PS3 to fail.

I know how you feel Ash. I am honestly fucking pissed off at the fact how Sony thinks of us as the second rate consumers. They are just making mistakes here and there.
They're a bit arrogant in this generation. In the last generations they had very little competition. Now Sony think they are unbeatable and are trying anything to sell the PS3.

The only thing that's in it for the PS3 with me is now MGS4. Everything else seems to be bullshit, if I end up paying monthly for each game monthly, might as well go with Xbox 360.

Too be fair, I can't see Konami leaving MGS4 for another console, they may release it like a year after for another console. But I would love a PS3 if I had MGS4 with it. I mean I aint spending £700 or whatever, but if I won it with MGS4 it would be great.

Reality is setting in. Sony's made the PS3 look so good and flashy, but now, as launch grows closer, things aren't so easy.
(And yes, I'm a Sony fanboy)
I still kinda beleive online will be free as IGN and Gamestop both used Sony's Online Multiplayer for Resistance Fall of Man and they confirmed it would be free and said it runs perfectly fine. But with recent events in mind im not 100% sure, thats why the delay was a blessing in desguise as now i get to see if the hype is real. (but im still pissed off) Also i dont really give a shit about someones personal opinion about Sony i wait for the facts!!!

If they got rid of free online I honestly think they would be pretty much finished.
